The Unión Musical de Pozuelo de Alarcón celebrated its 20th anniversary with a concert at the Teatro MIRA, showcasing a diverse repertoire that included traditional Spanish pasodobles and popular film soundtracks.
During the event, the mayor of Pozuelo, Paloma Tejero, presented a commemorative plaque to the association's president, Esteban López, in recognition of the group's contributions to the cultural landscape of the city. The concert featured pieces such as ‘Suena la Unión Musical de Pozuelo’ and ‘Gloria Ramírez’, alongside soundtracks from ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ and ‘Willow’, which received enthusiastic applause from the audience.
Tejero highlighted the significance of the Unión Musical, stating, “When we talk about the Unión Musical, we talk about a symbol of Pozuelo. It is one of those institutions that build community and remind us of who we are and where we come from.”
In her address, the mayor emphasised that the association's journey demonstrates that great projects are born from enthusiasm but are built through effort, perseverance, and hard work.
In a gesture of gratitude, the Unión Musical also recognised the institutional support it has received over the past two decades, presenting plaques to both Tejero and the deputy mayor, Almudena Ruiz. Additionally, the three past presidents of the association—Enrique Martín, Juana Guerra, and Esteban López—were honoured for their contributions during their tenures.
